[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh I hope he takes stats, OP! It’s a great class, arguably the most useful math class you can take in high school unless you’re headed to a math/engineering degree, and even then I’d argue it’s a valuable elective. It’s just so relevant to be an informed consumer of data. I’m biased, I teach AP stats, but every year I have liberal arts kids who didn’t take calc but get into great schools. English majors at UVA, art majors at RISD, psych majors at Vtech. Not taking calc will keep them out of MIT or any competitive math program, but your humanities kid didn’t want to go there anyway.[/quote] I should add that my advice is always to look up your intended major at your desired schools. If that major requires calculus, you should take it in high school. If the major does not require calculus, then stats is probably an equal or better option.[/quote]
